The Maine Department of Education website is decently easy to navigate. They also include information on extended learning opportunities, the Maine Learning Technology Initiative 2.0, continuing education resources, and more. Some of Maine’s standards are immediately downloaded when you click on them, this is why a few of the standards are pages and not pdfs. From the page, you can easily download the standards for yourself as well as have access to additional resources. To learn more about what Maine’s Department of Education has to offer, please explore the links below in more depth.
Note: While we continually check for current state standards, states often revise and update standards and various resources. Please make sure to double check that the information you are using is up-to-date for your state.
